Bioshock Infinite and it's season pass.

How much would you say it's worth, OP?
I regret buying an original 3DS. It's way too small and they've addressed that with later models, though the shitty screen persists afaik. Haven't touched it for years.
>>
Pre-ordered No Man's sky. Fell for the hype like an idiot. A bit over 60 $
>>
>>384484189
$20 max and even then it's not worth playing. It's 5 hours of generic gameplay with a horrible story and zero replayablity.
>>
>>384483018
Guild Wars 2, or Diablo 3, or Starcraft 2 HotS/LoV
>>
>>384483018
Overwatch lootboxes. Oh and, uhh, overwatch, obviously.
>>
Mirror's Edge Catalyst. I didn't get a key to play the beta so I didn't get a chance to try it. Bought the game for half price, played it for a bit and never completed it. Went back and played the first game instead.
>>
2 HOURSSSSSSS

>>384483396
Assassin's Creed 3 and its season pass. Didn't even keep it before the first batch of DLC came out. That was the first and last time I would buy a season pass for anything.

I would've gladly paid eighty. Best game I've ever played. No game has more attention to detail. It only """sucks""" 'cause gamers today are so cucked they need to watch e-celeb faggotry in the background just to stay focused.

Halo 4 for $60.

I didnt buy a video game at release price ver since.

Not bait. You can't name a game that's got a better story. Better acting. Better visuals. Better sound design. Better shooting mechanics.

>But the shooting mechanics suck.

Then every third person shooter sucks. Period. The game's so high quality that the fucking clothes don't clip.

Probably the only thing I liked about TLoU was the concept of a fungal infection involving cordyceps. I liked reading about it in one of Luis's notes in RE4 and was hoping someone would make a good game about it. Still waiting for that to come true.

Worst game I ever bought with my own, hard-earned cash was Alpha Protocol. One of the worst games ever made, in my opinion. Almost as bad as Corridor 7, which I still have the disc of that I stood in line for upon release.

Biggest regret, as in the one I spent the most money on and enjoyed the least, would be Fallout 4 + Season Pass on the PS4. It's not a bad game, but I should have gotten the PC version.

Final Fantasy XIII

This abomination of a game cost us the entire console generation. I don't get it how a game can be so fucking bad. Even if you tried to create a bad game on purpose you would have a hard time creating something as Final Fantasy XIII.

Paid £50 for Toukiden 2 at launch. Dont get me wrong, its actually a good game, but I regret spending £50 on it, £30 max wouldve been alright, if there was an active community it wouldve been warranted, but since the online was pretty dead even at launch it always bothered me Id paid that much instead of waiting till it was lower priced.
>>
>>384492636

How many hours have you spent in the game? If you only played 20~ hours, yeah, that's definitely not good. If you've spent 1,000+
>>
>>384483018
MGSV, I even pre-ordered
>>
>>384484189
I rented it for $5 and had an alright time. It took me a measly 8 hours to get the platinum + 100% completion and half of that was cutscenes or QTE's. If you're not interested in the GRPHX/setting there is very little to keep you engaged to be honest. That being said I thought it looked great on PS4, the combat was mediocre but still playable and the story was kind of interesting. They went for a cliff-hanger ending but I doubt we'll ever see the plot get resolved
>>
>>384483018
I paid $100 for the DNF: Balls of Steel edition. I was so butthurt, I sold it back to Gamestop, they said I couldn't resell the statue, I gave it to them anyway becausw I was pissed. I can't be the only person to have done this

I have around 250 hours in the game. Went back to TF2 though, Overwatch is such a shit game honestly. I wish I had that money now, especially now that I got a Switch

I remember near the start of the game I was investigating some scene and was suppose to be looking for an item, I had forgotten that the Witcher sense was a thing and just found the item myself, but as confused why I couldnt interact with it and thought it wasnt what I was suppose to be looking for, low and behold I use Witcher sense and I can now interact with the item. Of all the things I didnt like in the game this is far and away the worst thing, and its incredibly major to me, following a glowing trail fucking bites in any game, I can see the fucking footprints on the ground and follow them without the vision but Im not allowed to progress unless I use it.

Tekken 7. Lack of content & it takes way too much fucking time just to fet semi decent at the game. Plus my local scene is dead & I hate playing fighting games online.

These two were legit disappointments for me. The game world also felt very flat. The jump button barely had any use.

Battlefront II (2015). Well, mostly spending $30 on the first two DLC packs. Should've waited till after Rogue One dropped for the Complete Edition for $30.
Still sunk in over 300 hours on the main game, though.

How fucking stupid do you have to be to do something like this? How much of a mindless hype drone, who is so fucking dense that no rational thought can penetrate his thick skull? Like holy fucking shit dude, this game was a laughing stock even before it came out, but I bet you were one of the retarded cunts who was screaming "Y-Y-YOU JUST HATE FUN!!!!!!!" everyone time someone pointed out what an obvious pile of shit this was. Genuinely go fuck yourself, retards like you are funding the sad decline of the games industry.

So?

It's like 60 hours if you take your time, plus there's NG+, and there are multiple paths to increase it's replayability

>game areas get smaller every chapter and there are only 3
They're roughly the same size, and they're detailed enough to be great. Why do idiots like open, gigantic worlds full of nothing?

>railroad experience
Kek, there's plenty of ways to go through the game, even in the subquests

>no freeroaming
Again, why do you like this open world meme?

>invisible walls
See above

>more story than game = shit
It's actually balanced. If you want full action and no story, then don't play rpgs

>ebin QTEs :DDD
I also hated the QTEs, but there weren't a lot of them, actually.

>graphics over substance
Beautiful graphics complementing a very meaty game. I like it better than TW3
